Inventory Optimisation
The reorder decision is rarely hard. It is just made too rarely, on too little, by someone with fourteen other things to do. So it gets made from a stale export, or from the way it was made last quarter, and the result is the same handful of SKUs stocking out every season while a different handful quietly ties up half your working capital. The spreadsheet that would have caught it exists. It was last refreshed in March.
Skynet replaces the refresh with an agent that never stops looking. It reads your stock levels against real demand and real lead times, notices when a SKU’s velocity changes before the reorder point does, and brings you the short list that actually needs a decision this week.
How it works
Bring stock and demand into one memory
Connect your inventory system, your sales history, and your open purchase orders. Held together, they answer the question no single system can: given what is selling now, what is on the water, and how long this supplier really takes, when does this SKU run out?
Let the agent find the drift
Ask it to sweep the catalogue on a schedule. It looks for velocity that has changed against the forecast, cover that has fallen below your target weeks, and stock that has not moved in long enough to be a problem. Thousands of SKUs, none of them skipped.
Review a proposal, not a number
For each SKU it flags, the agent writes up what it sees: current cover, recent trend, the lead time it used, and a proposed order quantity with the reasoning behind it. You are checking a judgement, not rebuilding one.
Approve and let it act
Once you sign off, the agent can raise the requisition, draft the supplier email, and update the tracking. Where you trust it — routine replenishment on stable SKUs — you can let it proceed on its own and keep the review for anything unusual.
Build it from a prompt
Say what good looks like for your catalogue, in your own words.
The payoff is a shorter list and a better one. You are still making the calls, but you are making them on the SKUs that need a call, with the working shown, before the stockout is already booked.
